Thanks Mike --I checked each one and they each have a different (correct) color ...this seems so odd -- 2 work fine and two dont work at all. I have changed order, changed color --same result. I deleted and re entered the ones that did not work and same result

If the field in question is formatted as a chexbox oder radio button set, add another copy of the field to the layout and format it as an edit box, so the actual contents is not masked by a value list.

Another sanity check: is that "text field" really a text field, or maybe a number field?

And lastly, do you really want to test whether the contents of that field is identical to P1, P2 etc., or that it contains that string, among other text? If the latter, you need this expression:

The comment was meant to clarify that order does, by default, matter. The specifics of this case obviate it, but the OP should understand why it doesn’t matter, rather than assuming a universal “order doesn’t matter” rule.
